Governing Argentina: The Way Ahead

January 17, 2024

When this interview was recorded, Argentina had just sworn in a new president of the Nation, raising many questions about the political future of the South American country. The freshly installed Head of State had led a peculiar campaign, had promised to slash government spending, in a country where half the population receives support from the State. His radical rhetoric against the political elite had galvanized the youth, but also contributed to stoke fear on the future of democracy in Argentina. In this interview, Camila Crescimbeni, former MP and member of the ADEL 2023 cohort, answered questions on her own political engagement and on her perception of what the close future of Argentina might look like.

Un tableau mitigé a été dressé, avec des signes de reprise et une croissance supérieure à 2 % qui n’empêchent pas des situations de crise comme au Brésil, au Nicaragua ou au Vénézuela.

Economic activity and the population are concentrated in a small part of the territory. Even within this reduced area, the geographical distribution is highly uneven. Besides concentration, regional inequalities are marked in the country in terms o ...
